Healthcare Environment Evaluation

The increased recognition of the complex, dynamic, interdisciplinary and multi-purpose nature of healthcare environments, calls for a deeper and more critical understanding of its key dimensions (physical workspaces design, virtual work-spaces and leadership & management practices). There is increasing evidence of the effects of healthcare environments on healthcare staff work (clinical and non-clinical), satisfaction, productivity, performance and health and wellbeing. Hence this subject focuses on how Healthcare Environments can better support the healthcare workforce using evaluations.
